Larry Williams Named New USF Director of Athletics

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – Following a national search, the University of San Francisco has hired Larry Williams as the new Director of Athletics, the university announced on Wednesday afternoon.

Larry comes to the Hilltop with a diverse athletics background and a proven track record. He has had a long career in higher education as athletic director at three Division I institutions: University of Portland, Marquette University and most recently, University of Akron. At Marquette, he was actively involved in that university's achievement in competing in the Big East intercollegiate athletic conference, particularly in basketball.

"It is a great honor to be selected as the University of San Francisco's Director of Athletics," said Williams.
